Never use spikes. Use springs like Nobsound, or even better Townshend Pods or Bars. Or the very best, Podiums. I’ve compared and Townshend are by far the best. Spikes, the worst.
Does a Subwoofer Make Spiking Redundant?
I just added a REL T5/x to my system, and a question rises up from the depths of my ignorance: Does a subwoofer do the thing spiking speakers is supposed to do? Does a subwoofer make spikes redundant, or do they work at cross-purposes? If it's relevant, I've got the spikes on Herbie's Audio Lab puckies, on a (thinly) carpeted floor.
